Yeah, I've known for awhile now that FUN is no longer a leading factor in whether or not something is worth doing. Everything must be about profits, or have some reason to do it, and because of that, I'm well aware that fishing for fish alone is not something a lot of people will do long-term, as they get minimum pay-out from it. I won't disclose any info not found out just yet though that tells you what I mean.
The sunken chest at the bottom of the lake contains a few unique weapons that will be worth quite a bit, as well as containing clue-scrolls. The drop rates are still actively being adjusted, and more 'non-fish' items will be added to the actual 'fish table' sometime soon.
There will eventually be 'quests' you can do for bonus fish bucks, thus certain lure types will be much more useful.
There's 7 or so 'higher end' fish that are disabled right now too. I also have plans to have some form of unique 'crate' or 'roll' that you can only buy with the 'fish currency' from Mack.
You should ask around/check discord to see the little 'puzzle trail' I set up that give some subtle hints about certain mechanics at play behind the scenes. There's more than meets the eye with it currently, and one day of experience (which is mostly just balance/bug testing, with some features disabled) is not enough time, nor really fair to judge if its fully worth it, strictly from a payout standpoint.
I will say, not a single thing will directly pay out pure coins. All of the returns are in items, or 'indirect coins' (challenge scrolls).
